    • About Me

      Coming up on 9 months since my wife of 9 years (12 yrs together) left. Divorced as of 2/11/09. She is with my best friends brother and it makes me sick to my stomach. I have 50/50 custody of my little man and love every second of it. I live in the Los Angeles area. I have finally reached the point where I am completely independent and I am happy being alone. I am enjoying being alone and not fearful of it as I once was. I now see how lucky I am to be out of a loveless relationship. Now I will focus on "giving" to myself and my son. We are both doing great. For the new people, it WILL get better. Just work through it and you will make it.

      From anne7676 May 30

      So sad to see you had to call your best friend, so sad to hear that. And I know all about how hurtful it is to be betrayed by a loved one. Hoping you are nearing the end of your "processing" through this thing, & wishing you all the best (((hug))).

      You are not a loser... she's just a drama queen

    • Good Luck

      From scollins008 May 29

      I sometimes wish I could time-warp to the part in a relationship where you're past the "trying on" stage and just be at the knowing them, liking them a lot stage, the place where they know how you take your coffee, if you'd like another drink, what movie we'll rent at the video store....I guess I just want to be where I was before the end came. Sounds like where you're at, too. Good luck to us both, getting past the felling of betrayal and finding a way to move on & be whole again.
